Operation
Operation
Generator Location
Please consult your local authority. In some
areas, generators must be registered with
the local utility.
Generators used at construction sites may be
subject to additional rules and regulations.
This generator must have at least five feet of
clearance from combustible material. Leave
at least three feet of clearance on all sides of
the generator to allow for adequate cooling,
maintenance and servicing.
Place the generator in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT place the generator near vents or
intakes where exhaust fumes could be drawn
into occupied or confined spaces. Carefully
consider wind and air currents when
positioning generator.
Surge Protection
Starting the Engine
1.
Make certain the engine is on a flat, level
surface.
2. Flip engine switch to “ON” position
(Item A)
3. Rotate the fuel valve to the “ON”
position (to the left)(Item B). See image
below
4. Move the choke lever (Item A) to the
“Choke” position (to the left).
CAUTION
Voltage fluctuation may impair the proper
functioning of sensitive electronic equipment.
Electronic devices, including computers and
many programmable appliances use
components that are designed to operate
within a narrow voltage range and may be
affected by momentary voltage fluctuations.
While there is no way to prevent voltage
fluctuations, you can take steps to protect
sensitive electronic equipment.
1.
Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in
surge suppressors on the outlets feeding
your sensitive equipment.
Surge suppressors come in single- or
multi-outlet styles. They’re designed to
protect against virtually all shortduration voltage fluctuations.
2. Obtain an Uninterruptible Power
Supply (UPS) device.
Most UPS devices come with a
rechargeable battery between the
electronic equipment and power supply
source. The device buffers the voltage
and protects against virtually all shortduration voltage fluctuations.
10
5. Pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly.
6. As engine warms up, move the choke
lever to “Run” (to the right).
NOTE
If the engine starts but does not run, make
certain that the generator is on a flat, level
surface. The engine is equipped with a low oil
sensor that will prevent the engine from running
when the oil level falls below a critical threshold.
Rev 46557-20100219
Operation
Connecting Electrical Loads
1.
Let the engine stabilize and warm up for
a few minutes after starting
2. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt
AC single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the
generator.
DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the
generator.
DO NOT overload the generator.
Stopping the Engine
1.
Turn off and unplug all electrical loads.

electrical devices plugged in or turned
on.
2. Let the generator run at no-load for
several minutes to stabilize internal
temperatures of the engine and
generator.
3. Push the engine switch to the “Off”
position.
4. Turn the fuel valve to the “Off” position.
Do Not Overload Generator
Power Management
Use the following formula to convert voltage
and amperage to watts:
Volts x Amps = Watts
To prolong the life of your generator and
attached devices, follow these steps to add
electrical load:
1. Start the generator with no electrical
load attached.
2. Allow the engine to run for several
minutes to stabilize.
3. Plug in and turn on the first item. It is
best to attach the item with the largest
load first.
4. Allow the engine to stabilize.
5. Plug in and turn on the next item.
6. Allow the engine to stabilize.
7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each additional
item.
NOTE
Never exceed the generator capacity when
adding loads.
Capacity
Follow these simple steps to calculate the
running and starting watts necessary for
your purposes.
1.
Select the electrical devices you plan on
running at the same time.
2. Total the running watts of these items.
This is the amount of power you need to
keep your items running.
3. Identify the highest starting wattage of
all devices identified in step 1. Add this
number to the number calculated in step
2. Surge wattage is the extra burst of
power needed to start some electric
driven equipment. Following the steps
listed under “Power Management” will
guarantee that only one device will be
starting at a time.
